An Improved BM3D Algorithm Based on Image Depth Feature Map and Structural Similarity Block-Matching [PDF]
We propose an improved BM3D algorithm for block-matching based on UNet denoising network feature maps and structural similarity (SSIM). In response to the traditional BM3D algorithm that directly performs block-matching on a noisy image, without ...

Despeckling of Ultrasound Images Using Block Matching and SVD in Sparse Representation [PDF]
This work proposes a novel scheme for speckle suppression on medical images acquired by ultrasound sensors. The proposed method is based on the block matching procedure by using mutual information as a similarity measure in grouping patches in a ...

De-Speckling Breast Cancer Ultrasound Images Using a Rotationally Invariant Block Matching Based Non-Local Means (RIBM-NLM) Method [PDF]
The ultrasonic technique is an indispensable imaging modality for diagnosis of breast cancer in young women due to its ability in efficiently capturing the tissue properties, and decreasing nega-tive recognition rate thereby avoiding non-essential ...

Block matching frame based material reconstruction for spectral CT. [PDF]
Spectral computed tomography (CT) has a great potential in material identification and decomposition. To achieve high-quality material composition images and further suppress the x-ray beam hardening artifacts, we first propose a one-step material ...

Three-Dimensional Block Matching Using Orthonormal Tree-Structured Haar Transform for Multichannel Images [PDF]
Multichannel images, i.e., images of the same object or scene taken in different spectral bands or with different imaging modalities/settings, are common in many applications.

Matching Pursuit With Block Incoherent Dictionaries [PDF]
Recently, there has been an intense activity in the field of sparse approximations with redundant dictionaries, largely motivated by the practical performances of algorithms such as matching pursuit (MP) and basis pursuit (BP). However, most of the theoretical results obtained so far are valid only for the restricted class of incoherent dictionaries ...

Integral Images for Block Matching [PDF]
The integral image representation is a remarkable idea that permits to evaluate the sum of image values over rectangular regions of the image with four operations, regardless of the size of the region.

Global image registration using a symmetric block-matching approach. [PDF]
. Most medical image registration algorithms suffer from a directionality bias that has been shown to largely impact subsequent analyses. Several approaches have been proposed in the literature to address this bias in the context of nonlinear ...

Sharp Sufficient Conditions for Stable Recovery of Block Sparse Signals by Block Orthogonal Matching Pursuit [PDF]
In this paper, we use the block orthogonal matching pursuit (BOMP) algorithm to recover block sparse signals $\x$ from measurements $\y=\A\x+\v$, where $\v$ is an $\ell_2$-bounded noise vector (i.e., $\|\v\|_2\leq \epsilon$ for some constant $\epsilon$).
